BBC America's Killing Eve, about a female assassin and the MI5 officer chasing her, took the world by storm last year.
BBC美国出品的《杀死伊芙》去年风靡全球,该剧讲述的是一个女杀手和追捕她的英国安全局探员的故事。

Now the show is gearing up for a highly anticipated second season, set to kick off April 7.
大家翘首以盼的第二季已经杀青,预定于4月7日开播。

Here's everything we learned.
我们了解到以下这些信息。

1.Season 2 picks up 30 seconds after the end of Season 1.
第二季接着第一季结局的30秒的剧情演。

Eve has no idea if Villanelle is alive after she stabbed her at the end of Season 1 because the wounded assassin escaped her flat before Eve could help her. 
Eve不知道Villanelle被她刺中以后是不是还活着,因为她还没来及救她,这个受伤的女杀手就逃离了她的公寓。

Of course, based on the first images of the new season (and because there wouldn't be a show without her), we know that Villanelle has survived and is only wounded.
当然,根据新一季的剧照,我们知道Villanelle只是受伤了并没死。(而且她如果死了这剧也演不下去啊)

You're going to see a new side of Villanelle. "At the start of the season we see Villanelle in a different way. She has no control of the situation," teased Comer who plays the role of Villanelle. 
观众会看到Villanelle的另一面。“在这部剧的开头,我们会看到不一样的Villanlle。她一筹莫展、无能为力,”饰演Villanelle的Comer笑称。

She noted that Eve stabbing Villanelle will affect both characters in a way that neither woman is expecting.
她提到,Eve刺伤Villanelle这件事会以一种两人都不想要的方式影响到这两个角色。

"You see them vulnerable in slightly different ways because they've crossed a line and there's kind of no going back," added Sandra Oh who plays the role of Eve. 
你会看到她们以一种与之前不太一样的方式展现出脆弱,因为她们越过了某条界线,而又没有回头路可走,”饰演Eve的Sandra Oh补充到。

"We have a lot of energy at the beginning of the season and that pushes both of them into a different place of vulnerability."
我们在这季的开头都的戏剧冲突很足,两个角色都被迫展现出一种不同以往的脆弱。”

2.Villanelle's clothing is still incredibly eye-catching. 
Villanelle的衣服依旧异常吸睛

At the start of the panel, BBC America revealed a short trailer for the new season, and fans will be quite delighted by the outfits Villanelle wears in the first few episodes of the new season, but probably not in the way they're expecting. 
在发布会的开头,美国放出了一个短预告片。看到Villanelle在新一季头几集里穿的衣服,粉丝们肯定会很兴奋,但估计和他们期待的不太一样。

3.There's a new female assassin in Season 2. 
第二季会出现一个新的女杀手。

And it's going to cause some issues between Eve and Villanelle, probably.
而且很有可能会因此引起Eve和Villanelle之间的一些矛盾。

4.The show continues to travel to great locales. 
该剧将继续去知名景点取景。

The women weren't very forthcoming when discussing where the show would take viewers in Season 2 — whenever possible, they actually film on location — but executive producer Woodward-Gentle did confirm we'll visit Rome in Season 2 before also hinting at locations via food, including hagelslag, which is from the Netherlands.
被问起时,两位女演员都躲躲闪闪不愿意透露第二季的取景地,但执行导演Woodward-Gentle明确表示第二季在罗马取过景,随后他提到的食物也泄密了些地方,比如荷兰的巧克力碎。
